Just for Kids Interactive Auditory Processing Pictures

Ages: 5-10
Grades: K-5

Students improve their auditory skills as they listen for clues and follow directions by drawing on large, illustrated printable pages.

Use an interactive approach to build auditory processing skills. Students draw in response to your directions on 50 reproducible, printable pictures.

There are three types of listening activities for each printable illustration:

• Exclusionary Listening–Listen to a short story and four clues to narrow down which item is being described.
• Listening for Directions–Follow concept-based directions. Each printable illustration and set of directions targets one concept. The concepts pertain to attributes, spatial, temporal, quantitative, negation, and directions.
• Listening for Clues–Listen to clues in short stories to locate an item.

In addition to listening skills, the printable illustrations can be used to develop attention and memory, receptive/expressive language, logical thinking, problem-solving, and vocabulary skills. Select the lessons and corresponding pictures based on these categories:

• Attributes–Teach colors; shapes; and the concepts of large/small, thick/thin, same/different, medium-sized, horizontal, and more
• Spatial Concepts–Includes on/off, top/bottom, inside/outside, next to, left/right, in a row, and more
• Temporal Concepts–Target days of the week, months, first, last, today/tomorrow/yesterday, and more
• Quantitative Concepts–These lessons include numbers, half/whole, every, few, except, part of, and more
• Negation–Teach students to understand "no" and "not."
• Directions–Teach the concepts of "other" and "skip."

COMPLETE KIT INCLUDES: 56-page manual with stimulus items and printable pictures in color and black and white and tracking chart.
